Most of the roads leading to the capital are already wide cement roads, and horse-drawn carriages are running in them, which are smooth, light and smooth. Li Dagongzi, who was walking with Xiaolong, sat in the back carriage and said to Wen Yue who was sitting in the same car with him with emotion: "The last time I walked this road, it was still full of potholes, but this time it was all repaired. How fast they build roads! ”

Wen Yue was also forced to go to the capital this time. Wen Zhong and Wen Jin were not leaving, and the two children thought of a way, so they teased the two children, saying that Xiang Kun, Zhenzhen, and Wen Fan were all going to the capital, so they coaxed the two children out. They took a few children to send Wen Zhong and Wen Jin outside the city, and the two children fell asleep in the car, so they secretly turned back, but Wen Yue had to continue to follow to prevent the two children from waking up and making trouble. After the two children woke up, they didn't see their friends, and they cried for a while, and then gradually settled down and stopped crying. Wen Yue sat in the car behind and accompanied Mr. Li.

Wen Yue hadn't walked this road for several years, and the condition of this road was still stuck in the memory of the original need to carry a large wooden plank to get through guò. Now I see that this road is so smooth and clean, easy to walk, and I really like it. After listening to the words of Grand Prince Li, he nodded and replied: "This road is so well repaired, the government has made a lot of achievements. ”

"I heard that all the places that need to be repaired over the years have been repaired, and now the local government is busy building this kind of cement road. If there are such roads everywhere, it will be convenient to go anywhere in the future, fast and comfortable, no worse than taking a boat. ”

Except for going out with his father, Wen Yue has never gone out at all, and he has never taken a boat. So he told him which was more comfortable, the carriage or the boat, and he really didn't know. Don't rush to answer what you don't know, this is what the gentleman taught him, so he pursed his lips and smiled, and said nothing.

When it was time to eat and rest again, they stopped at a snack bar next to an inn.

Sometimes you find that it's not that people like to follow the trend, it's that they don't know that some things can be done this way. It's like there's a snack bar next to this inn. In the past, others didn't know that they could open a store next to the inn, so the inn at that time was a lonely and exclusive stick. Now the inn is no longer just a snack bar, but also haberdashery, clothes, shoes and hats, medical halls and other small shops, forming a small business circle. This can be said to be the style of the Wang family at the beginning. But it can also be said that these people have broadened their business horizons.

Xiaolong took Mr. Li into the snack bar to order food, and Ah Jing took Wen Zhong, Wen Jin, and Wen Yue to accompany him and went to visit a few small shops. When I turned around and returned to the snack bar, several people's hands were not empty.

They were happy on the road. But the second girl at home is not so easy. Years ago, there were reactions from all over the house, and there were many local towel factories, and the towels produced were not inferior to the high-end towels produced by the Wang family, but the price was relatively low. And there are some places where there are also woven sweaters produced by other people, although the quality is not as good as Wang's transcendence brand sweaters, but over time, it is estimated that it will not be bad. There is also the piece of ready-to-wear, there is already that clever tailor who has thoroughly understood the Wang family's approach to this kind of clothing and opened a ready-to-wear sewing shop. Although it is handmade. But buying cloth and handicrafts is cheaper than buying ready-to-wear clothes.

These industries are finally facing competition, and they are no longer exclusive businesses, which are tests for those in charge, and also for Erya, the person at the helm. Erya is not a business elite, and she doesn't even know the most basic business knowledge in her original world, let alone talk about the amazing business battles in that world. But she knows a truth from the original world, after the ups and downs of the economic crisis, enterprises may be eliminated for various reasons. However, in the end, it is possible to stay because of the strong economic backing and the excellent quality of the products. The economic backing is not bad now, so another thing to grasp is quality.

After the little dragon is gone. The stewards in various places also began to return home, and before they returned, Erya held a meeting of senior management. Emphasize the importance of quality and price equalization, and don't reduce prices rationally because of people's low prices. The price of the royal goods. Whether it rises or falls, there will be a unified distribution after the senior management meeting, and individual shops cannot rise and fall arbitrarily on their own.

These requirements are not stressful for the steward at this time. The proprietors don't have a hard line of demanding how much they have to do every quarter, nor do they have to do anything to get promoted, so they don't have so many unscrupulous and reckless stewards. Most of them are children who have gone out of their own homes, and they all follow the path of seeking development while maintaining stability. Erya is relieved of them, and they have never thought of pitting the owner. Another six months passed. The news from everywhere is still stable, and the number of merchants who come to batch goods from the factory at home has not decreased, which makes Erya temporarily relax her tense nerves.

In October, the people working in the west began to return home for the New Year, but on the way they saw more and more flocks of sheep.

"Master Cai! Are you going to buy sheep back too? ”

"Yes! They came here last year, and I just caught up and bought a one to make a mutton pot at home, and the meat was so fragrant and chewy! didn't wait for the New Year to entertain guests, and was eaten by his own family. This year, I plan to buy a few more sheep and keep two for the Chinese New Year. I see you've been waiting here for a few days, so do you want to buy sheep and eat them? ”

"Ouch! Look at what Master Cai said, how can my family afford to eat mutton! It's the old man in the family who wants a sheepskin jacket, and I can't afford it. I heard that whole sheep are sold here, which are very cheap, and you can buy an adult sheep of seventy or eighty catties for two or five dollars of silver. I thought about buying one, skinning it for the old man to make a leather jacket, and then selling the mutton for 30 yuan a catty, and keeping the haggis for my own family. In this way, it doesn't cost much to leave a padded jacket, and you can eat a few good meals at home. Master Cai looks at me right?! This man was asking Master Cai, but in fact, he thought that his method was very ingenious, and his smug look was unconsciously revealed.

Master Cai replied with a smile: "If you have the capital, it is better to specialize in the business of selling mutton, then the mutton liver and haggis are actually more expensive than mutton, and the sheepskin alone can be sold for more than one or two silver, and a sheep can earn at least five hundred yuan." ”

This man is called Master Cai's heartbeat, but the two taels of silver in his hand can only buy an adult sheep that does not slip, if it is sold. I don't have that much capital. When he went back and took out the money in his house to make a book, he was afraid of losing again. I struggled inwardly for a long time, but I still didn't have that guts.

"Forget it! I won't do it this time, and I'll ask my mother-in-law when I go back. If she doesn't object, then take advantage of the year before the year to do it twice, and if she can really earn it, she will do it next year. The man made up his mind for himself.

While they were still talking, they heard someone outside shouting, "The sheep are coming!" "The man sitting in the house. They all rushed out.

When the sheep came to him, this man asked for ten, the other man for five, and another for three, and one for more, and in a few moments they were all divided among the flock. Everyone bought the sheep in their hands, and finally had the leisure to chat with the owner of the sheep seller.

"Why are you so late this year?"

The sheep seller replied: "This year is about the same time as last year, but there are too many people who buy sheep like you along the way." If I hadn't promised you last year, these dozens of sheep would have been snatched up in front of me. I originally wanted to keep a few sheep back to my uncle and father-in-law's family to divide them, but now I haven't kept any of them. I'm going to have to wait here until there's anyone behind me to drive the sheep up, if any. I'll borrow a few from them and return them to them when I get home. ”

Some people who bought sheep were embarrassed, and there were many people on the other side of the relationship who were like them, waiting to buy sheep on the side of the road!

The matter of buying sheep on the side of the road is related to the immigrants in the Qujiaao area in the west. When the first batch of people settled there, it was said that some people still have elders in their hometowns. There are elders in the family, and when the New Year is celebrated, it is necessary to return to the elders to celebrate the New Year together, which is the most important custom in this era.

The man who sold sheep was surnamed Sun, and he was one of the first to settle down. Because the first year I went back to my hometown for the New Year. There is nothing suitable to bring back to honor the elderly. I asked others, and they all said that the old man ate mutton to warm up, which is good for his health. The family has dozens of sheep, but it is not cost-effective to spend money to hire a car to pull them back. Think about it. In the end, it was decided to harvest the crops and set off to return to his hometown, the man took his son to drive the sheep back, and the woman took her daughter to collect silkworm cocoons and reel silk at home.

When you drive the sheep back, you don't care how much. He thought that he should honor his elders, and he should also honor his father-in-law, as well as uncles, uncles, uncles, and aunts. That's a total. actually drove away half of the more than 80 heads in the family. Sun Hanzi and his wife both have some pain, but when they go back in the first year, they always have to look like each other, even if it is a drop of blood from the tip of their hearts, they have to give it.

The father and son drove the sheep home, and in winter there was little forage, but there was little rain, and they did not suffer much. Sometimes it was a coincidence, when they turned from the official road and were about to walk the path in their own direction, someone asked them: "Brother! Do you sell this sheep? ”

Sun Hanzi hadn't reacted yet, and just as he wanted to say that he wouldn't sell it, his eldest son opened his mouth and said, "Uncle! Do you want to buy this? If you want to buy it, we can sell it to you. We came from the west, and we went back to our hometown for the New Year, and these sheep wanted to honor my grandfather and uncle, but it didn't matter if I sold you one or two. ”

This question is a housekeeper of a nearby outsider's house, who is going to the county to buy mutton, but the mutton bought back is not as fresh as the meat of this live sheep. The price given was not low, a silver ingot of ten taels, and said that there was no need to change, so he tied two live sheep to the carriage and took them away.

Sun Hanzi got inspiration from here, and every year he drove the sheep from the west early to sell the sheep at home, and asked the village residents and innkeepers on both sides of the road if they could buy sheep. He did this for two years, and others thought it was a good method, so they followed him, and drove the sheep to sell on the road, and sold the rest back to his hometown. After a few years, people from other places heard that live sheep could be bought on this road, which was cheap and delicious. So every year at this time, they come early to wait on the side of the road, waiting for these sheep to come and buy sheep. (To be continued.) )xh:.74.240.212
